This is a pure case of depression. Those that lacks mental stability to fight depression mostly resort to suicide. Learn to share your problems with those around you , as their motivational and encouraging input will help raise your spirit. People that reluctant to remain secretive with their worst worries usually end up this way. No matter the nature of your current predicaments suicide shouldn't be made an option. Life is ridden with obstacles the earlier you learn to endure and scale through a hurdle the better. My last homage to the decease
